My Little Pony: Trouble Between Worlds

A Wiked Surprise

Breeze
trotted out of the house, his head hung low and his eyes saddened, “Hey, it’s
not that bad, you look good as a unicorn.” Rainbow Dash said. “I wanted to walk on clouds like you.” he
said sadly. “I’m sure you can figure out
a way to accomplish that.” they all heard a familiar voice say. There, standing in the field hear the house,
was nothing. That nothing quickly
changed as Zeral faded into view, almost as if he had Rarity’s invisibility,
his cloths dirty and his hair now unkempt, though no facial hair still
remained. “Zeral?” Blade asked, and
grabbed his NanoPack from the ground where Twilight had set it down. The sword extended itself in his hoof,
“Really Blade, you should have more respect for someone superior to you.” he
said, his face now filled with madness.
“You lost already, everyone knows about your scheme.” Blade said, and
Zeral flipped his NanoPack in his hand turning it into a large arm canon, and
firing it at Canterlot. The blast hit
the wall near the mountain close to the bottom of the castle. “I need no schemes now, I have become almighty.”
he said. “Princess!” Twilight called
out, and crouched down, activating her Double Pack instantly, her mask still
off. “Well, well. Control of the power that destroys have we?”
he taunted, “The Diablo returning from the grave to claim more innocent lives.”

“It’s called
the Angel.” Twilight responded. Suddenly
her head was filled with whispers, some she could hear and others she heard
only as soft whisperings, “Kill him.” one of them said, “His weapon is to
dangerous.” said another, “He must be stopped before any more are hurt.” The last was the most prominent, the most
noticeable, “Avenge the Princess.” it said, and Twilight’s anger erupted, and
she charged, running at top speed and slamming her head into his chest, and
jumping back. Zeral did even flinch as
she rammed her horn into him, so she let go of all of her blades, and sent them
at him. He quickly transformed his gun
into a scythe, and blocked them all.
Bringing them back to her, she formed the circle of blades in front of
her, and unleashed a blast from the center of the collected tips. Zeral changed his Scythe into a sword and
literally batted the shot back to her, hitting her dead on. “GYAH!” she shouted as the explosion rang
out. Zeral began laughing, slowly at
first but then loudly and maniacally, “You think I didn’t see you use that move
the first time?” he asked, “I was there, holding onto you as soon as you put on
your armor, it was you who brought me back, unwillingly but you none the
less.” Twilight struggled to get back
up, her face pointed towards the dirt.
When she finally lifted her head, half of her mask was on, one of the eyes
and part of the cheek.

“Hm?” Zeral
asked as he glanced at the phenomenon.
Twilight seemed to be struggling to stand, so Blade stepped in next to
her, his sword in his new hooves. The
others quickly changed into their NanoPacks, and stood in front of him and her,
“Oh dear,” he said sarcastically, “One, two, three, four, five little creatures
with NanoPacks, and one without.” At the
last one he looked at Spiral Chain who was still looking for her NanoPack. “Actually, you can count seven with
NanoPacks, one without, three Alicorns and a Legendary DoublePack.” he then
heard from behind him. There stood,
Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Celestia, Luna and Riida, all of them with an angry look
to their faces. He growled angrily as
the mask on Twilight’s face crept more and more towards full. “Fine.” he finally said, “But don’t think
that this is over.” he said, and lifted his NanoPack in the air, vanishing
within seconds.

“Focus
Twilight.” Riida said to the struggling unicorn, “You must not let it control
you. Talk with it if you need to.” Rainbow Dash looked to Riida in surprise,
“Wait, how do you know that the NanoPack’s can talk?” she asked. “Wait, yours does to?” Pinkie asked, “I
thought it was just a program I accidentally downloaded.”

“Oh great,
Pinkie talks to Pinkie.” Applejack said as she neared the two, “I thought it
was weird that Tremor gave me advice on farmin.”

“You three
are not helping.” Twilight said as the other eye of her mask slid into
place. “Sorry.” they all said at the
same time. “Yours especially talks
Twilight, whispers, temptations. They’re
all communications. Just let it know
that your mind is strong.” Twilight
focused, separating the whispers in her mind until she could easily pick out
the real voice of the NanoPack, a voice a lot like her own, “Why do you fight
me?” it asked, “I am your weapon. We
were made for war.”

“No.” she
said, “I’m not a warrior. I’m a scholar,
a student of Celestia.”

“You’re a student of war.” the DoublePack
argued. “No, a student of the magic of
friendship.” Twilight corrected it. The
Double Pack went silent, and Twilight thought she had won, “Magic of
friendship?” it asked, “What is the Magic of Friendship?” Before Twilight could even answer it
continued, “What is Friendship?” She
seemed shocked, “You, don’t know what Friendship is?” she asked slowly. “It is not a spoil of war or a repercussion
of it, yet I wish to know what it is.” her NanoPack said. Twilight looked up, eyeing her friends, each
one smiling as she looked, “Friendship is the most wonderful thing on the
world, no, the universe. With friends,
you can share everything, and have somepony to turn to when you need help. A friend can stay up with you playing games
or just come over to say hello. There
are so many things you can’t do without friends that are opened up to you with
each new one you make.” Twilight said, her struggle finally over. “Are they of any assistance in war?” the
NanoPack asked. “Yes!” Twilight said,
“And not just war, anything, and everything.
Every day friends are there to help you through it. They give me strength to keep moving and
hopefully stop Zeral from destroying Equestria.
I would give anything for them.”

“Anything?”
the NanoPack asked. Twilight answered
confidently, “Anything.” The Angel fell
silent again, not a word was spoken as the armor slowly retracted, the left eye
staying put until the last second, “I wish to know why, but I expect that
seeing it will give me a better understanding of what you would mean.” the
DoublePack said and retracted the final piece.

Hours
later, they all stood around talking, Rainbow Dash, Applejack and Pinkie Pie
talked mostly about how their NanoPacks began talking to them while the others
just talked, “So how bad is the damage at Canterlot?” Blade asked. “Luckily no pony was hurt, but I’m afraid
that Jacob was killed in the explosion.” Celestia told him. Blade didn’t seem upset, yet he also didn’t
seem thrilled about it either, “I see.”

“Princess
Riida said it was most likely on purpose, but I don’t see how that could be
possible.” Luna announced. “Trust me,
Zeral is capable of a lot of things, and almost six months in the Prison
Dimension has hardened him into a more malicious criminal.” Breeze told
her. Riida turned her head towards the
stars, looking almost homesick. “So much
has happened.” she said to herself, “And now half of the prophecy has come
true.”

“When the
Devil becomes an Angel.” Blade repeated, “Zeral thought that her DoublePack was
called the Diablo like yours was, but she instantly named it the Angel right in
front of everyone…um…pony.” Celestia
smiled at his attempt to fit in with the other ponies, ‘He works so hard for
almost nothing,’ she thought to herself and looked up at the house, “Perhaps I
could send for a royal builder to make you and your brother a proper dwelling
residence as thanks for all of your gallant efforts.” she said to the two
brothers. “Why sister, that is a
splendid idea.” Luna agreed and also looked at the house, “But by the time the
builder arrives, I fear they will have to start from scratch.” Blade placed his hoof on his nose and
somehow, he pinched the bridge, “I’m tired, please can I go to bed?” he
asked. The all nodded, right before
Pinkie’s tail began twitching, “Uh-oh.” she said, “Twitchy twitcha twitch.” and
seconds later, Blade, Breeze and everyone else heard a creaking noise, right
before the back wall fell to the ground.
Blade groaned as he walked around the house, “Not again.” he said as he
just picked it up and put it back into place.
“Sister, how long until the builders are prepared to leave?” Luna
asked. “I’ll have them here by the day
after tomorrow, mid afternoon.” she said in shock.
